E. Tugendhat on Assertions - Dictionary of Arguments
I 244 Assertion/Asymmetry/Tugendhat: the affirmation or negation both times refer to something on the part of the speaker, not on the part of the listener. Therefore, the situation does not correspond to the stimulus-reaction scheme. >Situations, >Stimuli, >Communication, >Negation. I 273 Game/Profit/Tugendhat: is important because it is about the motivation to take over one or the other side in the game - mixing of assertion and responsibility. >Scorekeeping, >Robert Brandom, >Attribution, >Predication, cf. >Game-theoretical semantics. I 279 Assertion/Object/Truth//Tugendhat: what is characteristic about the assertoric speech is that it is based on truth and therefore it is object-based - we can call these objects "facts" or "thoughts" or "propositions" - unlike Frege : not truth as an object >Meaning/Frege, >Judgments. I 281ff Assertion is a necessary part of meaning, because the truth conditions are part of the meaning. >assertion stroke, judgment stroke/Frege._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.
